Fans and Friends Come Together to Help

Doctor Who fans are coming together on the net to help out a fellow fan and friend, Johanna Mead. Johanna ( @britgeekgrrl ) is well known at Doctor Who conventions across the US for her detailed and creative costumes, she is also a writer and an English expatriate living in northern California. Unfortunately, her husband had just recently lost his battle against cancer and the online community of fans and friends have come together to help raise money to help offset the costs of the final arrangements.

If she was selling the scarf, she would be asking for at least $350 for it, but it can be yours for an opening bid of $100 right now. The auction will end at midnight (mountain time) on the 15th of December.

Not only will be getting a fabulous scarf, but you will be helping a fellow fan in a time when it really makes a difference. While there, check out the other items being auctioned off.

Anyone that has ever lost a loved one knows how it is at this time and knows the costs associated with it. With the holidays upon us now, you can help out with these costs and get a great gift for yourself or to give to another.
